I have been enjoying a devotional called Jesus Calling by Sarah Young. I bought it several years ago on the recommendation of a good friend, but it didn't interest me at the time. In January 2014, after a tumultuous move to the Midwest, God brought the book to my attention as I unpacked so I began using it in my daily quiet time. Slowly but surely, God began speaking to me and changing my thoughts about Him and trust and love and depending on Him in every situation. I thought I would share a few of these thoughts here in my blog.
After a year of reading the devotional on a daily basis, I felt led to read it for another year, but I would go deeper this time. It is as if I am reading it for the very fist time. I write my thoughts about everything in a journal and go deeper into the Scripture references. God is teaching me to release all the negative and stress into His hands and depend fully on Him each day. It has not been an easy road, but a fruitful one. The issues and stresses are still there, but my dependence on Him relieves the worries and fears and leaves me to worship Him all day.
I look forward to the journey of writing in the blog and sharing what I have learned and am still learning.
